While we were having a great time at the restaurant, another customer shared some Lucky Pierrot sweets that he had brought for the waiter!
As a token of our appreciation, we opened a bottle of this sake that a friend of ours had brought with him and let's all drink it together!
This sake is from Iwate Prefecture and is only sold at Sakamoto Sake Brewery!
It was a delicious sake with a solid and dignified flavor made from a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast yeast.
He brought it to me as a return gift for Kaygetsu, a present I had sent to a friend of mine the other day!
I was able to take the rest of the sake home with me as a gift!
Thank you very much 😊.

Product name Kurowashi
Specific name Junmai-shu
Rice: Hitomebore
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Alcohol content 15.5°.
Product Description This is our original Junmai-shu. The weight is increased by using a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast structure, and the spiciness, astringency, and acidity are pursued. It is the ultimate food sake that can be served cold to hot.
A local liquor store recommended it to me, saying that it is mostly consumed in Iwate Prefecture and not available much elsewhere.
It was my first time drinking Hitomebore sake, and it was delicious.
The flavor changes when it is heated up, which is interesting.
It's very interesting to drink it hot and the flavor changes.

A toast with Iwate sake to a grandfather in Iwate who died in the war
Washinoo is my favorite sake that I always want to drink when I visit Iwate.
The pure rice sake that comes from the traditional sake yeast yeast is called Kurowashi....
Aroma with a hint of sourness
Retro flavors reminiscent of caramel, nuts, and rice wine.
The body is thick, with a strong sweetness, but not too sweet, so it's great with meat or bonito.
It can be served warm, but I prefer it at room temperature.
I'm sure my grandfather would have liked this sake.
I'll go buy some more someday when I visit his grave!
Washino-o, black eagle
At Morioka station in Iwate prefecture
This sake was recommended by a shop assistant.
Because I was drinking it at the same time as Tobiroki, I felt a little sour.
The firefly squid, the salmon of Miyako, the croquette of the beef of Maesawa...it was the best!
A souvenir of the trip to Iwate
Every time I go to Iwate, I like to drink Wasiu-no-o, but this is the first time for me to drink Kurowashi. This is a limited edition sake recommended by the brewery.
It goes in like water. Sourness and flavor follow afterwards.
The aroma is slightly banana.
The acidity is strong. There is no indication on the label, but I sense a deep acidity like the sake brewing principle.
When it's lukewarm, the sweetness increases, and when it's hot, the acidity stands out. I like it at room temperature.
It goes well with oden.
It's not a modern sake, but it's a very good one to drink with dinner.
